Where Arsenal is going wrong

[Gubby Allen]

People seem to forget we remained undefeated in the Emirates Cup.

I'm sure we'll be reminded of that stat on the website and in the press conference after Newcastle if we toss away another 4 goal lead and cling on for a draw, having held Benfica:

"4 games unbeaten, ze spirit is back"

Outstanding read.

Thank-you for that.

That's fantastic. Good read and hit so many points.

Wow. Excellent read. If we get the blog off the ground here we'll have to try to sign him if only as a guest writer.

The other thing about that article is a lot of things have pissed me off this year, but the most recent one, I heard during the Emirates Cup was Wenger saying something to the effect of: "There is only one deadline - the 31st August one"

No there isn't (I find it increasinly difficult to refrain from adding an insulting name for him at points like this).

What about the deadline of 13th August when the season starts, or the one a few days later when the champions league starts? Or the deadline around today where the last available pre-season game we will have departed for and any new signing has **** all by way of game time to integrate with his team mates.

Our season starts with exactly those type of 2nd tier of difficult matches which you need to win to achieve anything: Newcastle away, Livepool home probably around the 8th-12th hardest games we'll have.

Throw in a couple of crucial C.L ties (which could so easily have been avoided) and there's every chance we're going into those with the same croc that are in a horrendous run of form.

His comments to put pay to any belief that he is up at all hours desperately negotiating any deals in time for the season start, when for him the season starts half a dozen matches into it.

Don't do it to yourself Gubby, it will only make you feel more & more frustrated. I've given up with Arsene & the board, literally anything now will be a bonus. I'm not expecting anything, in fact if we sold Nasri & Fabregas tomorrow I wouldn't expect Arsene to spend a penny.

There is only so many broken promises you can take. Everyone knows there's problems, there have been for years.

Fuck it, not worth it.

It is one of the best I've read.

He might cost too much, we cant afford the market rate.

also there's the waiting period to consider.

Nothing that hasn't been said here though - by the moaners.

Maybe one of the youngsters can do our blog - should be a winning site in a few years time if they are any good.

Is there an over 30's policy in place? I'll do it but only if I don't get dumped after putting in a solid year and attracting adoring fans.
